Abstract—Books are the ladder of human progress. Thanks to the development of the Internet, online book sales have
become the mainstream way. However, the uncertainty of online sales always hurts consumers. As a platform for carrying human knowledge, online book sales should not hit the enthusiasm of knowledge consumers but should pay attention to their products and services. This study collects Educated: A Mirror’s book reviews on Amazon.com and its Chinese version reviews on Douban.com (an online platform in China). By analyzing and comparing the negative reviews of Chinese and English reviewers, we found some of their similarities and differences in the impolite strategies, and last analyzed the possibility factors of producing such pragmatic phenomenon.
Keywords—educated, impoliteness, comparison, online consumer reviews
